Gtk.FileFilter.new
Description: Reference for Gtk.FileFilter.new

### Constructor

# Gtk FileFilternew

#### Declaration [src]

    GtkFileFilter*
    gtk_file_filter_new (
      void
    )

#### Description [src]

Creates a new `GtkFileFilter` with no rules added to it.

Such a filter doesn’t accept any files, so is not particularly useful until you add rules with `gtk_file_filter_add_mime_type()`, `gtk_file_filter_add_pattern()`, `gtk_file_filter_add_suffix()` or `gtk_file_filter_add_pixbuf_formats()`.

To create a filter that accepts any file, use:

    GtkFileFilter *filter = gtk_file_filter_new ();
    gtk_file_filter_add_pattern (filter, "*");

#### Return value

Type: `GtkFileFilter`

A new `GtkFileFilter`.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
